✦ Synopsis

The growth of the federal government has been studied extensively for the past 20 years, both to understand its size and potential for growth and to understand why it grows and operates as it does. This article presents an argument about the growth and operation of government and explores measures of long-term growth. The article suggests that one should not expect any significant reduction in the scale or scope of government in the near future.

Ronald Reagan was a two-term governor of California, and whatever his accomplishments, the restoration of "free enterprise" was not one of them. Had he become a two-term President, he (and we) would have found that, after the ideological smoke had cleared, not all that much had changed.----Irving Kristol (1978)
